The car drove smoothly under Xue Di's control.
The atmosphere inside the car was quiet and peaceful.
Dongfang Jing's thoughts drifted far away.
The distribution of the herb was indeed a bit of a challenge.
He looked at Xue Di driving ahead, then glanced at Bing Di in the passenger seat.
Honestly, at their level of cultivation of hundreds of thousands of years and titled Douluo, unless it is a top-grade immortal herb with perfectly matched attributes, ordinary immortal herbs can only increase their cultivation slightly and strengthen their foundation.
Both Hyotei and Yuki-tei are associated with ice and snow.
The immortal herb with the same attributes as them in the Yin-Yang of Ice and Fire is the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass.
But now, he has eaten one of the eight-cornered ice grasses, and there is only one left in the Hall of Ten Thousand Mirrors.
One magical herb, two people, how to divide it?
It's not good to give it to anyone or not.
Not to mention, to unleash the true power of this miraculous herb, it must be taken together with the Fiery Apricot Delight.
Taking just one of the plants would no longer have a transformative effect on them.
As Dongfang Jing pondered, a thought gradually arose in his mind.
He closed his eyes, and his mental energy quietly reached out to contact Brigitte in another sports car ahead.
"Master, Master, I have something to say..."
Dongfang Jing quickly recounted his thoughts to Biji in his mind.
After saying that, he waited quietly for his master's response.
Unsurprisingly, Brigitte's response was calm.
"You can make the decision yourself."
Just a few words.
After saying that, Brigitte unilaterally cut off the telepathic communication.
Dongfang Jing was stunned.
It feels like... calling your girlfriend and being suddenly hung up on for no reason before you can even finish your sentence.
He subconsciously looked up, wanting to see what was happening to Brigitte through the car window in front of him.
Unfortunately, there was a distance between the two cars, and due to the angle and obstructions, he couldn't see them clearly at all.
"What's wrong?"
Hyotei's question, tinged with a cool yet concerned tone, pulled Higashikata back from his thoughts.
Dongfang Jing withdrew his gaze and shook his head.
He suppressed his doubts and decided to take care of business first.
"Sister Xue'er, let's not go back to the academy."
He looked at Xue Di, who was driving, and said, "Just take a detour and stop somewhere out of other people's sight. I have something to tell you."
Xue Di didn't ask any further questions, but simply nodded and turned the steering wheel.
The Soul Guided Sports Car drove off the dirt road and took a different direction from Wang Qiu'er's car.
...
Inside the sports car in front, Wang Qiu'er and Dugu Bo naturally noticed the commotion behind them.
"What happened?" Dugu Bo asked in confusion.
Brigitte remained as gentle and quiet as ever. She explained softly, "They have other things to do, Qiu'er. Let's go back to the academy."
Wang Qiu'er was in the know and had already guessed some of the details, so she didn't say anything more.
She stepped on the gas, and the sports car accelerated forward, quickly disappearing at the end of the road.
...
On the other side,
Xuedi drove the car to a secluded corner of a grove of trees and stopped.
At Dongfang Jing's request, the three of them got out of the car.
Under the questioning gazes of Xue Di and Bing Di, Dongfang Jing took out one thick winter coat after another from his soul tool and began to put them on.
After taking precautions to keep warm, he raised his hand, and a small blue and pink butterfly materialized in his palm.
The butterfly fluttered its wings and flew lightly to the open space in front of the three people, hovering in mid-air.
As soon as Dongfang Jing had a thought, its body began to rotate rapidly clockwise.
In the blink of an eye, it expanded into a doorway shimmering with a strange light.
Upon seeing this, the two women immediately understood.
This is the spatial teleportation ability of the Eastern Mirror. As long as you pass through this door, you can instantly arrive at any place in the world.
Dongfang Jing took the lead and stepped into the portal of light.
Snow Empress and Ice Empress exchanged a glance and followed without hesitation.
They felt a flash of light before their eyes and instinctively squinted.
Once my vision returned and I could see things clearly, the surrounding scenery was completely different.
As far as the eye can see, there is nothing but pure white snow and sharp, cold ice.
A biting cold wind howled past.
But for the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor, this biting cold felt like a mother's gentle caress, familiar and comforting.
Isn't this their hometown, the far north?
It turns out that when Dongfang Jing came to the far north last time, he had already secretly set up spatial coordinates.
"Little brother, what are you doing bringing us to the far north?" Hyotei asked, looking around at the unchanging snowscape.
"Well, generally speaking, no one will wander around the core area of the far north, so it's more convenient here." Dongfang Jing exhaled a puff of white breath and rubbed his hands together.
"I have something important to tell you."
Dongfang Jing's voice was calm, but his eyes revealed seriousness.
Seeing that he wasn't joking, the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress also became serious.
The boy straightened up, took a deep breath of the cold air, and slowly opened his mouth.
"Sister Bing'er, Sister Xue'er, I know that the reason you are willing to stay by my side and protect my safety is because your tribulations are coming soon."
"You were not 100% sure you could survive the tribulation, so you took a different approach and chose to help me become a god."
"To be honest, I couldn't completely trust you at the time. I only confessed about the Hall of a Thousand Mirrors because I had no other choice."
"However, although we haven't known each other for long, you've always treated me like a younger brother."
"When facing Tang Hao, Ning Fengzhi, Gu Rong, Dugu Bo and other strong people all stood up for me."
"Honestly, since you guys came along, I've never panicked when I do anything. You give me so much confidence. Including going to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to snatch someone, and accompanying me to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to protect me while I absorb the immortal herbs..."
"When I first started at Shrek Academy, I called you 'older sister' partly because of the circumstances."
"But over the past few months, I have truly felt that you all treat me like a younger brother."
"You treat me with such sincerity, yet I still keep things from you and harbor suspicions."
At this point, Dongfang Jing paused for a moment.
He took a step back and bowed deeply to the two women in front of him.
"I'm sorry, Sister Xue'er, Sister Bing'er."
Animals' emotions are often more genuine.
Once a decision is made, it is difficult to change it easily unless influenced by external factors.
Wang Qiu'er and A Yin are like that.
The same applies to Xue Di and Bing Di.
Since they have spoken up and are willing to call Dongfang Jing "brother," it is not just a verbal address, but something they will do to protect and love him like real older sisters.
Dongfang Jing's solemn and sincere apology left both Xue Di and Bing Di somewhat stunned.
They looked at each other, unsure how to respond.
